2.2.1 Power up configuration
You can change the power up configuration of the box computer in the BIOS setup:
• Connect a USB keyboard to one of the USB ports of the box computer.
• Power the box and enter the BIOS setup by pressing the <F2> or <DEL> key on the
keyboard.
• In Main Setup go to the Chipset tab at the top of the menu.
• Go to the South Bridge item.
• Go to the Restore AC Power Loss item. The default value for this item is [Power On]. This
means that the box computer always starts up after power is connected.
• When [Power Off] is selected the box computer can be switched on or off by pushing the
power switch at the front panel.
• Press <F4> to save the configuration and exit setup.

The MCP 450 application runs in a fixed resolution of 800 x 600 pixels. Even though you can
change the screen resolution of the box computer it is recommended to use a screen
resolution of 800 x 600 pixels, which is the default factory setting.
